Tri Laois - What is it all about?
The swim is a pool based swim in which competitors must complete either 30 lengths (Sprint) or 16 Lengths ( Tri-a-Tri) of the 25 metre pool in the Portlaoise Leisure Centre.
The cycle then takes the competitors out the old Dublin road, over a gradual incline towards Emo, then returning via quiet roads for the cycle leg, to complete the run over a largely flat out and back route local to the town.
The event is open to all, but has been particularly designed for anyone racing their first event - either as a team or as individuals. The short-distance, pool-based swim makes an ideal dry run for longer events outdoors later in the new season, and will help anyone preparing for outdoor events later in the Summer. Both the bike course and the run course are on quiet roads and will be well marshalled by an experienced crew of Race Marshals who will guide and direct you through the course with your saftey as their primary concern.
The event is normally the the first Triathlon Ireland competitive event of the season and being situatted in Laois the organisers hope the central location makes the event accessible to all. The race is organised by Trilogy Triathlon Club and this it the 10th year. Feedback from previous entrants has always been very positive and the vent has grown in populatiry to become a well established curtain opener for the Triathlon Season.
